AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION...UPDATED
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE EUREKA CA
447 PM PST MON JAN 18 2010

.SYNOPSIS...A SERIES OF STRONG LOW PRESSURE SYSTEMS WILL CONTINUE
TO PUSH ASHORE THROUGH THURSDAY...BRINGING A FEW ADDITIONAL ROUNDS
OF HEAVY RAIN AND HIGHER ELEVATION SNOWFALL TO THE REGION. THESE
STRONG WINTER STORMS WILL ALSO RESULT IN WINDY CONDITIONS AT
TIMES...ESPECIALLY ALONG THE COASTAL REGIONS AND HIGHER
ELEVATIONS.

&&

.UPDATE...A WELL DEFINED LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM ABOUT 200 NM WEST OF
THE HUMBOLDT COAST IS QUICKLY MOVING EASTWARD TOWARDS NW CA. THE
EASTWARD MOVEMENT OF THE SYSTEM VARIES FROM THE NORTHWARD PROJECTION
THAT MODELS PREVIOUSLY FORECASTED. SATELLITE OBSERVATIONS SUGGEST
THAT THIS FEATURE WILL CONTINUE TO SHIFT EAST BEFORE IT MOVES TO THE
NORTH. THE TROUGH CONTINUES TO NEGATIVELY TILT AS IT NEARS THE COAST
WITH THE POTENTIAL FOR THE OCCLUDED FRONT TO BEND OVER THE LOW.
EXPECT STRONG AND GUSTY WINDS ALONG THE DEL NORTE AND HUMBOLDT
COASTS AND EXPOSED RIDGES LATE TONIGHT AS THIS FEATURE NEARS. THE
WINDS MAY BE ERRATIC AT TIMES AS EMBEDDED THUNDERSTORMS MAY HELP
TRANSPORT STRONGER WINDS DOWN TO THE SURFACE. ANOTHER SYSTEM RIGHT
BEHIND THIS LOW WILL PRODUCE ANOTHER ROUND OF STRONG SOUTH WINDS
EARLY TUE MORNING THAT WILL PERSIST THROUGH TUE AFTERNOON. HAVE
ISSUED A HIGH WIND ADVISORY FOR TONIGHT AND TUE FOR PUBLIC ZONES 1
AND 3. THIS SITUATION WILL BE MONITORED CLOSELY THIS EVENING. THE
ADVISORY MAY NEED TO BE UPGRADED TO A WARNING IF THE LOW SHOWS NO
SIGNS OF SHIFTING TO THE NORTH...AND MEAN SEA LEVEL PRESSURE
OFFSHORE CONTINUES TO DROP. THE HIGH WIND ADVISORY MAY ALSO NEED TO
BE EXPANDED TO THE MENDOCINO COAST FOR TUE MORNING WHEN THE NEXT
FRONT NEARS. TH

&&

.DISCUSSION...TRAIN OF STRONG STORMS NOW SEEN CLEARLY ON THE
LATEST WATER VAPOR IMAGERY...WITH THE CLOSEST NEAR 40N 130W. THIS
OCCLUDED SYSTEM IS OF CONCERN THIS AFTERNOON AS IT IS SHOWING
SIGNS OF A BENT BACK OCCLUDED FRONT. IF THE WRAP AROUND DRYING
SEEN ON THE SATELLITE CAN MAKE IT TO SHORE...VERY STRONG SFC WINDS
MAY ACCOMPANY IT. MODELS DO SHOW A NORTHEAST PROGRESSION OF THE
LOW...HOWEVER...SUGGESTING THAT IT WOULD MAKE LANDFALL NORTH OF
THE EKA FORECAST AREA. WILL MONITOR ITS PROGRESS IN THE NEAR TERM.

WARM SECTOR IS NOW LIFTING NORTHEAST THROUGH THE CWA...WITH MORE
CONVECTIVE LOOKING SHOWERS/ISOLATED THUNDERSTORMS PREVAILING...AND
STRATIFORM RAIN EXITING TO THE EAST. SMALL HAIL WILL ALSO BE
POSSIBLE WITH ANY CONVECTIVE TYPE CELLS.

LATEST MESOWEST TEMPERATURES SHOWING FREEZING LEVEL AROUND 5000 FT
THIS AFTERNOON...KEEPING HAZARDOUS SNOW CONDITIONS WELL ABOVE PASS
LEVEL. HOWEVER...WITH EACH SUBSEQUENT STORM COMING THROUGH OVER THE
NEXT 48 HOURS...SNOW LEVELS ARE EXPECTED TO DROP SLOWLY TO AROUND
3500 FT. SNOW ABOVE THE SNOW LEVELS IS EXPECTED TO ACCUMULATE
QUICKLY OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS AS TWO MORE STRONG FRONTS PUSH
THROUGH THE REGION. THERE IS SOME CONCERN THAT THE WARM AIR
ADVECTION MAY HINDER LOWER SNOW LEVELS...HOWEVER...COLUMN SHOULD BE
ABLE TO COOL AS UPPER JET PUSHES FARTHER SOUTH. HAVE UPGRADED TO
WINTER STORM WARNING FOR 4000 FT AND HIGHER ACCORDINGLY.

SHOULD CONTINUE TO SEE GUSTY WINDS WITH EACH SYSTEM...ESPECIALLY IN
HIGHER TERRAIN...EXPOSED COASTAL AREAS...AND WITH THE WEDNESDAY
STORM. THIS MAY RESULT IN SOME SCATTERED POWER OUTAGES AND DOWNED
TREES. STILL EXPECTED SOME STRONG GUSTS THIS AFTERNOON AND EARLY
EVENING...AND WILL KEEP WIND ADVISORY IN EFFECT.

HAVE SEEN BETWEEN 1 TO 2.5 INCHES IN MENDOCINO COUNTY TODAY...AND .5
TO 1.5 NORTH TO THE OREGON BORDER. ADDITIONAL RAINFALL AMOUNTS OF 3
TO 5 INCHES ARE EXPECTED ACROSS MENDOCINO COUNTY THROUGH
THURSDAY...AND 2 TO 4 INCHES ELSEWHERE. HIGHER AMOUNTS ARE STILL
ALSO EXPECTED IN FAVORED AREAS LIKE THE KING RANGE AND SOUTH FORK
MOUNTAINS. MINOR FLOODING OF ROADWAYS...SMALL STREAMS...AND PONDING
OF WATER IS STILL A CONCERN THROUGH THE WEEK WITH THIS RAINFALL.

THERE WILL BE A BREAK IN THE ACTION THIS WEEKEND AS UPPER RIDGING
FINALLY BUILDS OVERHEAD. HENRY

&&

.AVIATION...WINDS WILL WEAKEN A LITTLE FOR A BRIEF PERIOD EARLY THIS
EVENING. THERE MAY BE A BRIEF BREAK IN RAIN AS WELL AS ONE FRONT
MOVES EAST OF THE REGION AND ANOTHER FRONT APPROACHES FROM THE
WEST. SOUTH WINDS WILL INTENSIFY AND BECOME GUSTY AGAIN LATER IN THE
EVENING AS THE NEXT FRONT NEARS NORTHERN CA. PERIODS OF RAIN WITH
POCKETS OF MVFR CONDITIONS...AND GUSTY WINDS WILL ACCOMPANY THE
FRONT AS IT MOVES ACROSS THE REGION TONIGHT AND TUE MORNING. TH

&&

.MARINE...SEAS WILL REMAIN TREACHEROUS FOR MOST OF THE WEEK AS A
SERIES OF STORMS MAINTAIN STRONG AND GUSTY SOUTH WINDS AND ELEVATED
NW SWELLS. SEAS MAY DROP BELOW GALE CONDITIONS BRIEFLY THIS EVENING
IN BETWEEN STORMS...BUT WILL RETURN LATER IN THE EVENING...AND HAVE
DECIDED TO LEAVE THE CURRENT WARNINGS AS IS...GALE ENDING TUE
AFTERNOON...AND HAZARDOUS SEAS WARNING ENDING THU MORNING. HAVE
ISSUED A GALE WATCH FOR WED AS WELL WHEN ANOTHER STRONG LOW PRESSURE
SYSTEM IS FORECASTED TO MOVE ACROSS THE WATERS. ISSUED A WATCH
INSTEAD OF A WARNING BECAUSE THE VARYING FORECAST MODELS ARE STILL
WORKING OUT THE POSITION OF THE LOW WHEN IT NEARS THE COAST...AND
WHERE THE STRONGEST WINDS ARE EXPECTED. MADE LITTLE CHANGE TO THE
SWELL FORECAST AS THE PACIFIC STORMS WILL MAINTAIN LARGE W-NW SWELLS
THROUGH THE WEEK. TH

&&

.HYDROLOGY...THE NAVARRO AND RUSSIAN RIVERS WILL SEE A SHARP
INCREASE IN FLOW LEVELS WEDNESDAY EVENING...BUT ARE NOT EXPECTED
TO REACH MONITOR OR FLOOD STAGES THIS WEEK. THE EEL RIVER WILL
ALSO RISE...AND AT FERNBRIDGE IS EXPECTED TO PEAK AROUND 17 FEET
EARLY THURSDAY MORNING...WHICH IS ABOVE MONITOR STAGE. AT THIS
STAGE...MINOR FLOODING OF WESTERN PORTIONS OF CANNIBAL ISLAND
ROAD...CAMP WEOTT ROAD AND ADJACENT AREAS MAY OCCUR...ESPECIALLY
WITH A TIDE OF OVER 6 FT WHICH IS EXPECTED.  HENRY
